  • Publication number: 20250095915
    Abstract: A high-coercivity neodymium-cerium-iron-boron permanent magnet has at least one of the following features: the area of grain boundary RE-rich phases in the magnet accounts for 4% or more of the area of a whole field of view; the grain boundary RE-rich phases in the magnet are fine and uniformly distributed; and the mean value of ratios of the area of block-shaped grain boundary RE-rich phases located at intersections of three or more main-phase grains to the total area of all the three or more adjacent main-phase grains in the vicinity is less than or equal to 30%. RE-rich phases in the magnet are continuously distributed along grain boundaries, thereby increasing the depth of diffusion of a diffusion source into the magnet, improve the uniformity of distribution of the diffusion source in the, and thus further improving the magnetic performance of the diffusion magnet.

  • Publication number: 20240274332
    Abstract: An expandable sintered neodymium-iron-boron magnet, a preparation method, and an application are provided. The magnet has a sintered neodymium-iron-boron magnet and an expandable coating coated on the surface of the sintered neodymium-iron-boron magnet. The sintered neodymium-iron-boron magnet coated with the expandable coating is used to replace a conventional assembly method of an epoxy resin adhesive coating magnet and potting resin glue, so that the magnet coated with the expandable coating may be inserted into a magnetic steel groove. The irreversible expansion of the coating itself is used to fix the magnet in the magnetic steel groove. Meanwhile, the use of the expandable coating shortens the assembly time of motors and improves the assembly accuracy of the motors.
